Ishikawa begins his quest for Hall of Fame, goes 3-3 in Giants win
February 25, 2009 by Doyers Suck
Travis Ishikawa is under pressure to perform if he wants to prevent the Giants from picking up a veteran first baseman. Ishikawa started this spring showing he means business by going 3 for 3 including 2 home runs and 4 rbi’s as the Giants beat the Cleveland Indians 10-7 in their spring training opener.
Thanks to the power of God, Travis Ishikawa hit 2 home runs, probably because it was Ash Wednesday.
“Like I said before, I’m going in with [the mind-set of] this is my job to lose,” Ishikawa said. “I’m going to keep doing everything I can. I can’t promise you two home runs every day. I wish I could; that would be great.”
Manager Bruce Bochy has noticed the purposefulness in Ishikawa, who also went 2-for-2 in Tuesday’s intrasquad game.
“Ishi’s got a great look about him right now,” Bochy said. “He looks confident. He looks like he wants to take this job and run with it.”
I swear to god, I think this is an omen! The Giants are going to win it all this year!
